Moelleux au Chocolat, Flourless Chocolate Cake

The weekend is here, beautiful weather outside, and we all know what that means; Fiesta Friday #42. Today I’m bringing a Moelleux au Chocolat, made with only dark chocolate. I’m not addicted to chocolate like the rest of my family but this Moelleux is very nice for any occasion!There is always a debate about this cake; Moelleux or Fondant, the Moelleux is light and moist inside the Fondant has a melted chocolate inside when you cut the cake. I let you choose!

I’m so with you on the chocolate. I like it, I eat it and enjoy it, but quite frankly, I could live without it if need be (although hopefully I’ll never have to!) This cake is definitely one that Id like a big piece of! Love love dark chocolate!! Thanks for bringing it to Fiesta Friday! 🙂

Wow. There is a French patisserie near here that makes mini versions of these. They used to be divine, but the last couple I’ve had have been disappointing – not soft enough in the middle! I’m going to give them another try, but I’m also really happy to have your recipe to try out sometime. Always such wonderful recipes from you! 🙂

Thank you very much for your sweet comment, Karina, you’re too kind 🙂 If you try the recipe, Karinna, I would love to hear your feedback and I really hope it works. The most important is to whisk properly the white eggs in this recipe and not too much flour. Enjoy your weekend!

This is one of the few chocolate desserts I am willing to make, and have been meaning to make one for a while. Not because I don’t like chocolate, but precisely because I like it so much, but only when very dark, rich and not too sweet. Your cake looks perfect.

Thank you for always being so nice to me, Hilda 🙂 I’m not a chocoholic like the rest of the family but from time to time I really appreciate chocolate and only dark chocolate, this moelleux is not heavy at all. I opted for a 85% of cocoa to balance with the 180g of sugar, the cake is nice!

It’s not a fondant type for sure but who cares!! I want it badly and preferably now please 😀 Here is the thing- I will give you some of my boring healthy muffins and in exchange you will give me this cake! Wonderful Linda, as always xx
